Dude, you are an excellent teacher in addition to your mastery of your trade. I am 73 a retired carpenter. It's a joy to watch and listen to your discourse as well as the sound of your trowel on the block. 5 Stars++ YOU ROCK!! "If you do't SHAKE IT, it will fall off!" That's the secret revealed. Suuccess and good fortune to you.
Yes you are, an excellent teacher. I watched this video twice and enjoyed Every second of it. I believe I can do it. I just need to get my hubby on board. We are both in our mid 70's but very creative. Thank you so much for your valuable instructions. Two thumbs up👍🏾👍🏾5⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐😊
You do beautiful work. I've been doing some block work for a garden at home, and realised I needed to get more lessons, because my work was terrible. Thank you for your help and advice. You're skill makes it look much easier than it is in practice.
Thanks for the video. Most of my work is installing solar panels on roof tops, but I'm laying some 4" block right now as part of a personal project (an outdoor kitchen). Just wondering, are you in Toronto?
Thank you for sharing Ryan. I love how you explained the blocks layout. Great teacher. I'm going to try it your way 😊. I enjoyed watching your video. God's blessings be with you always.
Bro, you make it look so easy, I've been a tender, been around lot of block layers, yet somehow never caught the reasonn for the shake,, can't wait to try me hand ! Jim
Do you have a video talking more about the line you use to align the wall? Interesting construction and your line seems extra stretchy. How do I get or make one? Thank you.
Appreciate your help. You’re a good teacher. Fr I’ve watched many n they ok it’s just you make it ok to be new. I’m doing my first n it’s night time cuz I have kids n it’s just peaceful so I don’t feel so exposed like day time where everyone stay nozy n guys come tell me what I’m doing wrong. So ok here I go, I got ree bar n my gravel I have a huge mess lol but it’s fun. Anyway thank you💜
Hi, with love from Nigeria. You are doing a great job there Ryan. Thanks for the tutorial. I however have a question for you. This is coming from the prevalent practice I see in Nigeria in which the head joints are 2 inches thick average. What I see here is something less than half an inch. Are we being wasteful or something?
Hey Ryan, great video. I immediately subbed. I have a 20' x 12' pad on this property I recently moved to. I want to lay a block foundation and build a shed on it. Great information.
Im just about to start........ any advise you can give would be helpful as im told to use family member and also that strangers would hike up the price because im a female. I am confuse so i turn to watching these videos on TH-cam. Im scared
Hey Ryan, I want to replace steps coming out of basement and want to widen one side of wall for wider steps and place a storm door! I see you use rebar every other block! Sealing sides do you put concrete in holes or use some type of sealer for outside of blocks to prevent water seepage as steps are below coming up to ground level? Thanks for a reply!
He needs to pay a little more attention to his head joints. Even though it takes longer, double buttering is more efficient and effective for strength and appearance. Bed joints were a little heavy creating tags or weeping mortar inside the cells which can interfere with concrete grouting and reinforcement but is fine for cells not requiring any grout. All in all, he is quite a good mason and a good instructor.
A reminder to the fresh blood to always cut the mud before you go all tappa tappa on the block. You can't see what you're doing untill you cut the mud.
I like the video it’s informative except the biggest problem for a beginner is to know how to mix the mutter properly and how to start the project to complete the wall and avoid problems that would cause you to have start over

So you don't use a level to ensure the blocks are laid straight

But how did you prepare the earth? The ground beneath that? You already had two rows installed For the start of this video

I see so many open head joints. Are you going to tuck point this later😅
